    Under heavy load going up hill. Engine dies around 1200 - 1400 rpm. Does no restart on its own, I have to turn key off and back on, then truck starts back up, I do not have to turn key to crank position. This happens 5 to 6 times a day given the route is hilly. Idle is up and down but no more than 100 rpm difference. Also at times the electric malfunction light comes on. I Think I have given all the info to help diagnose the problem.
